Rictor Appreciation....It's Earthshaking!

[Tycon]

He was a transmode zombie in that arc. Everyone save Cypher went back to being dead at the end of it

(and the Bashful Blink)
Well that sucks. But I couldn't think of any other mutants who could be the new Pyro and Avalanche and fit under the "former friends" moniker.

Blink wasnt dead so she couldnt go back to being it. Cypher was the only resurrected infected with the transmode that survived

Oh Rusty definitely fit but its his reason that contradicts it. BUT then again, he likely doesnt know the history here bc in that same interview he said Magma has never been a villian, when she clearly was in X-Force as a member of the New Hellions

[Herowatcher]

It's hard to see Rictor as the new Avalanche, but if he's being controlled by Mesmero then I guess it's possible.
Still, I'd hate to see him used this way and this guy looks too big (Juggernaut big).

Also, why put Magma and Pyro on the same team?

[Herowatcher]

Has it been said anywhere (in any comic) if Rictor is an Omega level mutant or potential Omega level?

[Havok83]

I dont think so and he never read as one to me

[Vegan Daddy]

Nah, I don't think he is Omega.

[JediKage]

That doesn't make him Omega.

Omegas tend to be Vast Energy Manipulation and/or Super Hard to Kill.

So Darwin is Omega because He has both.

Rictor has Energy Manipulation but he isn't even a Planet Breaker.

[Herowatcher]

A grouping I'd like to call the X-Pack!
Just add Moonstar, Siryn and Boom Boom.

[Havok83]

So pretty much late 90s X-Force with Rictor swapped in for Warpath and Domino

[Psycwave]

Also, you guys know he was in Secret Warriors with a rag tag group of other X-men.
Shattybuns wasn't there though.

As shown here:

Rictor is the one with the moustache by the way!

[Tycon]

Weird how he'd be buddy-buddy with Strong Guy even though he kind of sent him and Shatty to Mojo World and ditched them there. It's nice that he's reunited with his X-Factor uncles (Warren & Hank) and best friend Boom-Boom.

[Michael Watkins]

please Lord, strike the hair from Rictor's face!

I really dont expect much continuity here

Cool...thanks.
Rictor would look better with a mustache and goatee than just the mustache IMO.
I'll have to check this out.
